So you are saying let a perfectly good set of antlers get takin by some one else. If I see a dead deer in the ditch that has been freshly hit with good meat i call the C.O and get a salvage tag for the meat. If i see one that has been hit a while ago with a rack on it, i am going to just take the rack i aint going to cut the head off of it. just simply take the rack and pull the deer into the ditch farther so no one sees it like maybe a little kid. So i am a slob for taking the antlers off of a dead deer? If you saw a 190" buck laying in the ditch that had rotten meat i suppose you would just drive by and leave the rack! NOT.
